Valentines Day and Zucchinis

Happy Valentines Day everyone! I would not normally post anything about zucchinis on Valentines Day, but hey……

I brought a loaf of my homemade zucchini-clove bread to a Walking Dead party on Sunday night. The loaf had been developing its flavors in my freezer for a few months. Someone asked for my recipe, so without further ado here it is:

Preheat oven to 350F.

Grease and flour 2 loaf pans.

Grate 3 heaping cups of zucchini skin and all. Retain the juices. I use a cheese grater for this. Set aside.

Mix the following dry ingredients well:

3 cups flour

2 cups sugar

1 1/2 tsp ground cloves

1 tsp nutmeg

1 tsp of cinnamon

2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp of baking powder

1 tsp salt

5. Add the following to the dry mix:

3 eggs

2/3 cup oil

3 cups of grated zucchini including the residual liquid

6. Blend well.

7. Pour the batter into the pans. Bake at 350F for about 1 hour until a knife comes out clean.

Let it cool for at least 15 minutes before you take it out of the pan.

If you want to take it up a notch, add a 1/2 a tsp of ground cayenne pepper and a 1/2 a tsp of all-spice.

So come July when you have more Zucchini than you know what to do with, remember this recipe, and always remember to love one another.

Peace.
